I use High Resolution Stock Photography: Download Free Stock Photos and Royalty Free Images - they're affordable, and I can usually find what I'm after there.

In fact, stockexpert is enough for most of the time.

Sometimes, the photographers post common pictures in different directories. =)

Yes, but their price is high compared to microstock agencies price, so not everyone can offord them.

Same for the other major stock photo agencies: Corbis, Jupiterimages, Alamy, Photolibrary and Alamy. Their royalty free images price start at around $50 per photo for small size (microstock agencies price start at $1, or even less, and the quality is very good).

You'll find a bunch of websites at:

We use BigstockPhoto

They're pretty reasonably priced and the small image size (900px x 675px) has always been sufficient for our needs.

My company does a lot of graphics design for clients including producing magazines, promotional brochures and websites. As such we use some high end companies for royalty free stock photography. However, these guys have some great inventory:

Photos.com
Photospin.com
Comstock.com
Shutterstock.com

Another one for Big Stock Photo - it's really cheap

I think they got a special going on now, 100 photos for $100 - sounds good to me!
